After four weeks travelling in Norway and Sweden I’m back home in Konstanz! Just for a little while as I’m already preparing the next trip. This time to the south whith hopefully a bit more sun … I’ll keep you posted!

For our last night in Stockholm we didn’t have accommodation but actually managed to get a free bed in the hostel and obviously two in the camper. After Danny had taken his plane back to Munich Jörg and I started the final part of the trip, heading south towards Lund with a stop on the island of Öland near the southern end of Sweden | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

After two nights in the city we’d spend the next one on an island called Grinda about 2hrs by boat off Stockholm. The weather forecast was perfect for the day so we started early to get the ferry by 9.30h | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

Wednesday night we picked Danny up from the airport Arlanda north of Stockholm. Danny is a friend of Joerg, they met during a practical term in Tokyo a couple of years ago. For the next four days we’d be three to explore the bars and places of Stockholm | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

Shortly after cossing the border of Sweden and Norway you come past Idre and should take the road up to the Nipfjället where the Nipman palters with tourist or rather their cars. At a certain spot you can see your vehicle rolling up the hill! Pretty funny and quite surprising | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

In Trondheim there’s actually the Nidaros church worth visiting. Again the library offers free internet. To recharge our batteries and get a hot shower we booked the camp site Flakk a bit outside the city right next to the sea.
After a very slow morning with scrambled eggs and potatoes we headed inland, leaving the coast of Norway | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

As good as the weather had been during the first week of our trip, as bad it would get from now on for the next couple of days. But first there was still hoping that the sun would break through the thick clouds when we started the hike from the parking at the foot of the Preikestolen where they actually charge you a parking fee of NOK60 which seems to be a full-on rip-off. But the nicely prepared track leading through swampy land and nice plateaus makes up for it in the end | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)

So, it’s been a while since I last wrote about the trip. Not that nothing has been happening or we started arguing or so – but somehow I just haven’t had the motivation and time for more than uploading photos … and actually in Stavanger I lost about half an hour of work because my computer crashed right before submitting the post. But now I’ll try to make up for it and bring you up to date | See the pictures (weiterlesen…)
